Understanding Intuition: A Journey In and Out of Science explores the biological and cognitive mechanisms that account for intuition, and examines the first-person experience. The book integrates both scientific and personal perspectives on this important yet elusive mental capacity. It uses specific encounters to illustrate that intuition is enhanced when we can attend to the subtle aspects of our inner experiences, such as bodily sensations, images, and differing kinds of intuitive evaluative feelings, all of which may emerge no further than on the fringe of awareness. This awareness of subtle inner experiences helps forge a more fluid exchange between the unconscious and conscious minds, and allows readers to calibrate their own intuitions. Over the course of the book, readers will gain a deeper appreciation and respect for the unconscious mind and its potential sophistication, and even its potential wisdom. Understanding Intuition is a timely and critical resource for students and researchers in psychology, cognitive science, theology, women's studies, and neuroscience.

"This wide-rangingand importantbook onthe science of intuition is scholarly yet accessible, rigorous yet personal. Byexpertly weavingtogether ideas andfindings frompsychology, neuroscienceandspirituality, it represents asynthesis on the topic of intuitionthat goes notablybeyond what has been published before in a single volume." -- Dr.Oliver Robinson, author of Paths Between Head and Heart: Exploring the Harmonies of Science and Spirituality
"Intuition is an under-appreciated human faculty whose unconscious learning, memory, and response cues are never-the-less invaluable. Not only does intuition underlie the genius of creative discovery, in art, math, and science, but also this faculty guides each one of us through the vicissitudes of daily life. In contrast with rote learning and conscious deliberation, intuition is especially useful, if not necessary, in a current cultural milieu of continual change and information overload. Isenman’s book, Understanding Intuition, is a masterpiece that brings together the latest research trends in cognitive and affective neuroscience, while examining intuition in terms of bottom-up and emergent implicit processes from the perspective of nonlinear dynamics. This book is well-researched, well-organized, and highly readable, as Isenman walks the reader through definitions and conceptualizations that are otherwise nonverbal, ineffable, and seemingly inexplicable." -- Terry Marks-Tarlow, PhD, author of Clinical Intuition in Psychotherapy and Awakening Clinical Intuition
"Lois Isenman describesan inner access point that bridges the structure of our Subjective reality withthe Objectivity of received Intuitive
"A rich, nuanced and scholarly work, Understanding Intuition takes on a vital but little discussed aspect of scientific, artistic and interpersonal creativity, culminating in a stirring final chapter that looks at the human spirit and our collective future. Weaving skillfully between the rational and the intuitive, Isenman’s work itself reflects its subject. Jonas Salk, a renowned synthesizer of intuition and reason, would stand and applaud." -- Jonathan D. Salk, M.D. Co-author with Jonas Salk of A New Reality: Human Evolution for a Sustainable Future and Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine
"Moving back and forth between personal experiences of intuition and the scientific evidence describing the processes involved, Intuition’s Journey surveys the intelligence of the unconscious, where decisions are made about a half second before our conscious mind is aware of having decided. Isenman takes us into this world where our intuitions originate in a knowing that is “unconscious insofar as it escapes our notice, even as it guides the flow of our mental associations." - John Ryan Haule, Ph.D.
